Trump's role model

Trump's role model

by digby

















In this article about Trump's ongoing jealousy of the Pope, Sarah Posner concludes:

It's almost as if Trump sees himself as the Henry VIII of reality TV (though he didn't need any permission for his divorces). He's hinting, not too subtly, that allowing immigration would tie the country closely to Rome, an ugly insinuation given the history of anti-Catholicism in American politics. He wants to divide — Catholics from each other, Americans from Catholics, immigrants from "real" Americans — and create a new American church, one in which he is the divinely ordained King, and reading the Bible is optional.

He hasn't ruled out beheading either.
